Hello

I am using macOS 10.13 on my Mac mini

I receive a message saying that I need to have macOS 10.15 or a later version to receive future updates

My question: how can I get macOS 10.15 or a later version without altering the information and files saved on my computer

Thank you in advance

To upgrade your Mac from MacOS 10.13 to 10.15 or later, it is recommended to follow these steps:

1. Make sure your Mac is capable of handling the new update: generally, if your Mac was made from 2012 onwards, it should be able to do so.

2. Back up your Mac's data. You can use Time Machine, which is a built-in backup utility in MacOS. This will preserve your files and applications during the update.

3. Once you have backed up your data, open the "App Store" on your Mac.

4. Search for MacOS Catalina (which is version 10.15) in the App Store search bar. For newer versions, you can search for MacOS Big Sur or MacOS Monterey, for example.

5. Once you find the version of MacOS you want to install, click on "Download" in the App Store.

Note that the download may take some time, depending on your internet speed and network congestion. Once the download is complete, the installer will open automatically.

6. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the MacOS installation.

Your machine will restart several times during the process. Once the update is complete, all your information and files should be intact.
